BEAUTIFUL presentation with 50 slides about animals in French. Including colours, agreements, AVOIR, and plenty of activities, games and sheets. Worth at least 3 /4 lessons. HD quality, the presentation is UNPROTECTED for you to tweak all you want.

This game is a French version of the classic &quot; I have… Who has …? &quot; game, designed to practice the names of the clothes, the colours, the agreement between nouns and adjectives and the verb “wear”.
This is an easy-to-play game and a great way to practice essential language concepts with the whole class. As students match up the answers on their cards with questions on other students’ cards, they get valuable practice with vocabulary, as well as reading and listening skills.
Directions:
Cut out the cards along the dotted line and laminate. For bigger classes, you might want to print several copies of each set.
Give out all the cards in the set to the students. It is important to use all the cards.
Choose a student to go first. I usually do that by a counting rhyme.
Have the selected student read the question at the bottom of the card aloud and then put the card down.
The student who has the card with the answer then reads that answer aloud.
This student will then read the question at the bottom of their card and put the card down. Play continues in this fashion until all of the cards have been played. The game will end with the same student who started play.
Every card in the set is connected to a card before it and a card after it. To keep the game moving at a quick pace, all students need to pay attention to every question that has been asked.
I tell my younger students that this is a magic game and that the magic only works if you pay attention, which is actually true. The magic happens in the end, when the question on the last card actually matches the answer on the very first card.
Enjoy!

A lesson that your students will not forget quickly! A history-themed escape room activity for beginners in French in which students need to solve language related puzzles to chase down the legendary Count de Saint German, who is said to be immortal. They will use historical documents, cryptograms, code wheels and virtual trips to France to open the locks on the website and get closer to the prize.
Students need to know French colours, numbers, clothes and months. This will keep them focused, even on the last lesson of term.
The resource includes:
Puzzles and “historical” documents
Link to &quot;The mysterious Count de Saint Germain” website.

A bright and interactive PowerPoint presentation to enable pupils to begin building sentences and conduct simple conversations. It covers the first and second person singular of ‘avoir’ so that children are able to ask for and give information about their pets. It also deals with the masculine and feminine singular of adjectives including possessives (mon/ma; ton/ta). There is an accompanying vocabulary sheet, which needs to be studied before embarking on the paired and group conversation activities suggested in the presentation. Several worksheets accompany the PowerPoint: a crossword and word search to support the learning of essential vocabulary, a cloze exercise based on a simple text to be tackled as pupils progress towards sentence work, and finally, a written exercise where the task is to continue a conversation about pets between two friends.

OBJECTIVE:
To learn about:
everyday clothes
Adjectives in general
Formation of feminine adjectives
Adjectives of colour
Verbs of liking and disliking
Clothes you wear in different places
Different types of fabric
Do different exercises to ensure that students will remember vocabulary studied in this unit.
This is aimed at Year 7 to Year 11 French students, for those now starting to learn French and for Year 10 to Year 11 students who are revising topics for GCSE exams.

Made for an observation with a top set year 7 French who had already seen colours the previous lesson
works on word order, using all forms of AVOIR and extending translations about animals with adjectives.
Also looks at adjectival rules and plenary is a challenging spot the mistakes.
Also has an authentic listening :)

Lesson activities and worksheet about Easter vocabulary in French, made for Primary school level/low ability Key Stage 3.

Worksheet activities and answers are included (PDF version also included).

These medium term plans are the perfect way to start any KS2 class (provided it’s their first time learning the language). As the title suggests, it works through general introductions (Hello, goodbye, names…), it then moves on to number 1 - 12 followed by telling your age.
The Autumn 1 scheme incorporates, games, songs and activities (weblinks links provided in the planning as well as Ppt and activities attached). The Autumn 2 scheme recaps everything from Autumn 1 then moves on to colours. Again, the scheme incorporates ideas, games, web-links and a Ppt.

These resources provide Medium Term Plans for French for any KS2 year group, depending on prior knowledge. The plans explain each lesson focus and has attached resources. There are also ideas and weblinks within the planning to make the teaching easier and fun for the children. I spoke conversational Spanish and NO French prior to being MFL Coordinator, I’m learning with the children every week as we progress. I’m having as much fun as them learning new vocabulary through speaking and listening games. So don’t worry if you’re not a linguist, give it a go, the children love it!

A worksheet with 3 differents exercises: match the opposite, finish the sentence using adjectives of colours (describing a picture of fruit or vegetable), fill in the blank with the adjective in the bracket.

This resource includes flash cards for days of the week, months, numbers, seasons, colours, weather and school subjects. The flash cards can be printed, cut and laminated. The days, numbers and months can be used daily for dates on your board. All of these topics are then presented again in poster formats for wall displays. All very colourful with pictures.

French Couleurs Wordsearch
A wordsearch in French first with the words and then with pictures of the colours to make it a little bit more difficult.
Ideal for homework or a little end of day fun.
Hope you enjoy.
Thank you for downloading my resource.

This revision resource is for French students in Year 7 who are studying for the AQA board. However, since all the boards seem to follow the same themes students studying other boards will find the resource very useful. There is vocabulary for ab initio students. There are speaking and writing exercises to help students retain the French vocabulary they have learnt during the year.

This is a fun printable dictionary for pupils to use as a reference and also to record the French vocabulary they are learning during their studies. It starts with six reference pages, which include the vocabulary for: numbers 1 – 100; colours; days, months, seasons; weather; time and animals. Following this are 26 pages, each has a letter of the alphabet, with example words for each letter and the rest of the page is left blank for students to fill in as they go along. There are also some completely blank pages at the end if students fill up an alphabet page.
This can all be printed in black and white and the pages can be put in a duotang or made into a booklet.

This is for a very able Year 7 group and is designed to embed and consolidate previous learning. It contains:
a reading comprehension with questions in English
a section on finding and accurately writing out questions
translation sentences from English to French - present tense only
a translation paragraph from French to English
all the answers are at the end
It is based upon Tricolore units 1-6, but does not contain pets (I got fed up with them!) and it does contain aller in the present tense, so dips in to unit 7.

An Easter card game plus further activities. Using personal/basic information plus Easter words thrown in, you may get away with using this in your lessons to bring in Easter vocabulary! A card game gets you started and further activities for reading/writing/speaking are explained on the last sheet.

This is a set of 28 question cards and 28 answer cards to get your pupils speaking to each other in French and great to use as starters for target language practice. They include questions about name age, likes, favourites, preferences, family, daily routine, and many more.
These fun colourful cards can be printed and cut into individual question and answer cards to be used in several different ways, depending on the ability and confidence of your students:
Both question and answer cards can be given to students in pairs to practice a conversation. (Easier level)
Question cards only given to pairs to practice a conversation. Students will need to form their own answers. (Middle level)
Students are only given the answer cards and need to use these to form the relevant questions. (Harder level)
It is essential that pupils can ask questions (not just answer them). Regular practice of these question and answer sessions will allow them to get used to asking questions and be able to formulate further questions independently.
CORRECTED AND UPLOADED

Year 7 resource covering basic information and questions with an Easter learning twist. There are 16 cards of pets to use in a variety of ways - listening/speaking/writing/whole class/small group/pairs. An ideas sheet is at the end. A flexible resource to bring in Easter words without jeopardising the SoW! Useful to revise basic information and questions but bringing in new vocabulary for Easter at the same time.

This resource is for students who are beginning to learn French and for students who would like to review fruit and colours. The powerpoint shows fruit, then colours.

This is a full 1 hour lesson for Year 7 or Year 8. It includes a very detailed lesson plan, a Powerpoint presentation, a handout with extension &amp; extra activities (to continue in a follow up lesson or to give as homework) and the video clip for the song.
I have used it for the last 5 years both with boys and girls in Year 7 &amp; Year 8 and pupils always love the catchy tune of the song and remember the vocab more easily thanks to it.

A murder mystery with 32 suspects. Each clue will eliminate half the suspects. The clues (which are in the form of jigsaws) test knowledge of numbers, animals, colours, days of the week, months, seasons and body parts.

I have attached some presentations to help children learn the vocab needed for an 'All about me' topic in French. They focus on facial features and body part names, as well as key phrases they will need to describe themselves or others.
Facial features are taught with the Guess Who? game- play in partners to describe one of the characters, or play whole class on IWB! Prompt sheets with easy to find vocab for facial features, size, hair colour, eye colour, hair length etc.
Body parts taught in a similar way but with aliens! Presentation with lots of colourful, varied aliens with different numbers of arms, legs etc. to practice naming and describing. Teaches how to say phrases such as 'She/he has...5 legs' etc and prompt sheet to print for pairs to play Guess Who? naming the aliens! Again, can be played whole class or in partners- used as whole lesson or recap starter activity.
My Year 4 class loved playing these games and it really helped to teach the vocab in full phrases, rather than learning the individual words!
I hope this will be useful to you :)

Once pupils have learned numbers 1 to 12 and colours in French, challenge them to complete this fun number colouring activity sheet. Use this activity to assess or embed learning or to provide additional French independent learning at home.
Please note: French numbers and colours vocabulary with audio are available from my shop to support less confident pupils.
